A Chicago Woman's Sad Experience in
Wisconsin Sfnckada


CHICAGO, October 2Sth.-The case of Mrs.
Maded Cassidy, accused by Julia Howden
of abducting her for a Marinette, Wis, dive,
was heard by Justice r. H. White yester-
day. The Cassidy woman was booked for
disorderly conduct and the charge would
not hold, but the Court ordered q continu-
ance to allow the officers to bring the
charge of abduction against her. Julia
Howden told her story, which includes a
number of charges. Last May, having at
that time had some trouble with her hus-
band, she met the Cassidy woman, who
offered to procure her situation in hotel
at Marinette, Wis, where she would get $40
q week for waiting on the table Mrs.
Howden accepted the offer and started for
Marinette with Mrs. Cassidy. She found
the hotel located on the top of hill sur
rounded by high fence, distance from
any other house.
A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE.
She then detailed her terrible experience
She was finally starved into submission
Several times she tried TO escape, and once
managed to climb the fence surrounding
the yard, without alarming the watchdog
chained there to give the alarm should any
OF the girls get away, and succeeded in get
ting some distance from the house, but q
dog was put on her track, and she was
caught after an hour of freedom and
dragged back to slavery. For two months
she was kept in the place, which was run by
man named Mike Leahy.
ESCAPE AT LAST.
Finally she managed to escape with
enough money to take her to Green Bay
where she worked until she found means
to take her back to Chicago. She arrived
here homeless wanderer, swearing ven.
geance on the woman who had decoyed
her TO ruin. Seeing her on the street yes.
Jerday for the first time since her escape
from the Leahy dive, she caused her ar
rest.
Mrs. HowGen says that while at Leahy's
place she met girl, - years of age, named
Blanche Bonfeld, an orphan, who, before
her mothers death, lived on Indiana ave
nue., the fashionable residence thorough
fare in Chicago. Blanche begged piteously
to be released from the place, but her en-
treaties were laughed at. Finally the men
who frequented the place interceded for
her, and becoming afraid that they would
force him to release her from custody
Leahy sent her to Hurley, though she
threw herself on the floor al his feet and
begged him not to do so.
There were two other Chicago girls there

Will Resign.
PARIS, October 2Sth.-This evening Pres
ident Grevy, at a Cabinet Council, intimated
that he would resign if an inquiry was in
stltuted into NJ. Wilson's alleged connection
with the decoration scandal.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
President Grevy said he did not object to
Wilson being tried in the regular wav for
any otfense probable, but he must object to
the system of blackening his son-in-l laws
character, not only through the press but
through committee of the Chamber. en-
bracing numerous personal enemies and
representing party hatred. The committee,
he said, were usurping the functions
OF Judge and jury. Seeing the spirit
in which it had been formed, he had de-
cided to resign. While he thought he en-
joyed the confidence of Parliament nothing
could make him take such step, but he
was unable to remain in the Elysee with a
broken-up family, diminished dignity, and
his son-in-law on trial before an irregular
tribunal, which had no power except to
blacken character and torment.
Flouquet assured the President that the
Chamber held him in undiminished respect,
and urged him to overlook its hasty and
unconsidered action and reconsider his de
cision to resign. 1t was finally arranged
that Grevy should await the report of the
committee. Nine. Wilson is still at the
Elysee with her daughters.

Your telegram received. VIII not the United
States authorities take notice of the monstrous
wrong of the quarantine officers in forwarding
immigrants from affected ports directly into the
interior without notice? OSCAR DE WOLF.
DR.. de Wolf received the dispatch at
1920 O'Clock, and acted upon the matter at
| once. A messenger was sent for DR.. Re,
the Italian physician, with orders to search
| the Italian quarters thoroughly for the in
| fected immigrants. The Chicago Health
Commissioner then grew wrathy, and pro-
| ceeded to handle the New Y ork authorities
without gloves for not acquainting him be-
| fore with the facts of the arrival of the
Independence passengers, and their subse-
quent removal to this city.
During the afternoon DR.. Re succeeded
in finding twelve of the Italians, all of
whom We're well and at work One had
gone to New Orleans, and still another had
run away from his wife, no one knowing
where he had gone to. DR.. Re expects TO
find the others to-day. DR.. de Wolf decided
to take the clothing and baggage of the i'm
migrants to the pesthouse and thoroughly
fumigate and disinfect them. DR.. de Wolf
says the only real danger is in the clothing
of these people, and, since the season is so
late little danger need be apprehended
from that source. Notwithstanding the
doctor's reassuring language, there is con-
siderable uneasiness among the public gem
erally.

DESCRIPTION OF THE RACI

Both oarsmen took position at Just nine
| O'Clock, and were at once sent away. Gau-
daur's position was on the western shore,
He took the water very quickly, and went
little to the front. Teemer recognizing
| Gaudaurs slight lead, pulled up on him
i and had nearly closed up a lead of length
at the quarter mile. Gaudaur was pulling
| thirtyfo strokes, and Teemer thirty
three. At the halfmile post Teemer was
up on the st. Louis man, while Gaudaur
seemed to be giving out. His left oar
faited to fully respond, and he was rowing
unevenly. Here Teemer shot away from
his rival, and at the three-quarter- mile
post had a slight lead, which he had in
| creased at the mile.
Teemer did some fast work to the turn.
He beat Gaudaur out, and there was no
race bone. Gaudaur was making no eff
fort to show his speed. The race was a
complete walk-over. Teemer and his
friends at once took the train for Portland,
and will go on to New York. He sails for
England about the middle of November to
meet Bubear on the Thames.

TEE ANARCHIST CASE.
Arguments for the Motion on Writ of
Error Concluded Yesterday.

WASHINGTON, October 2Sth.-Long and
exhaustive arguments were today made
before the United States Supreme Court in
the case of the condemned Anarchists of
Chicago. State Attorney Grinnell argued
on behalf of the prosecution, and was fol-
lowed IN most elaborate and vigorous
argument by General Butler. The latter
declared that one policeman was killed by
the explosion OF bomb, but that there was
not scindlla of proof in the entire record
OF the case, as presented to the Court, to
show that any of the condemned men were
responsible for the act. He concluded his
argument few minutes before o'clock.
In conclusion General Butler said If
mems lives can be taken in this way, as
you have seen exhibited to-day, better an
archy-better be without law than with
any such law"
General Butler thanked the Court for its
indulgence, and took his seat.
The Chief Justice called the next case on
the docket, and the hearing of the motion
Of the Anarchists for a writ of error was
over.
